The article is in German, but here’s a section machine-translated into English
We look at what players want and what we’ve changed recently. If we added new types of caves and forests to the game last year, it will be about other things for now, such as the combat system. In this way, we want to ensure that there is something for everyone in “Minecraft”. We also try to add things that solve a problem in the game.
Inventory PLEASE
The number of blocks in the game just keeps growing and growing but the inventory is the same size as ever.
They’ve tried to work around this wilth shulkers (useful!) and bundles (less useful…) but the core problem is the same; there’s just not enough space.
It’s not so bad for adventuring - it’s building where things really get awful. Spending half your building time block swapping from shulkers is not a fun experience.
I rarely play modded, but I’ve had the experience of ‘backpacks’ on a friend’s modded instance and it’s such a quality of life improvement. Please.
